Does it exist a way to convert old audio recorded tapes in order to be able to record them on DVD?

I don't believe this has anything to do with QB, but anyway...

Get a tape deck with a line output (NOT amplified speaker output). This will probably be one or two RCA-style connectors, so get a stereo RCA male-to-male cable (plus a Y adapter if the tape deck only has a single output jack), attach one end to the tape deck, and attach the other end to a RCA to 1/8" stereo headphone adapter. Connect this to the line input port on your sound card. Use your favorite audio recording software (Audicity is decent, and it's free) to record the tapes as you play them.
